So back to school, back to work. Sort of. Mark’s been off for the last week and he took an extra day off today as well. Hopefully I’ll be getting some real shifts in at the library soon, cause I’m only working 2 days a week at the falafel place.
Haven’t heard anything about Normandy. I think I didn’t get it. I’m gonna start filling out forms for the RCMP, although I don’t think that’s what I’m going to do. One of my profs just gave me some info about a student Ontario-Quebec job exchange thing for the summer. Apparently I still qualify for it even though I won’t be in school after April. It just matters that I’m a student now. Hopefully I’ll be able to request a placement in Montreal, but somewhere else in Quebec might be fun too. It seems the deadline for everything is January 29th…
I’m looking forward to Podcamp Toronto, hopefully all this toque business will be solved by the end of the week, but we’ll see. I’m also looking forward to being a bridesmaid in September. It’s a ways away, but there has been discussion of weddinglike things and it’s kinda nice.
It’s hard to keep a positive attitude sometimes… I feel like things are going so slow, but it also feels like time just keeps creeping up on me and my life at university (well, at Mac anyway) is coming to an end. It’s strange, but satisfying. If it were slippery it’d be like eating grub (that’s right, I totally just quoted The Lion King). I also feel like I don’t have a lot of close friends, but when I think about all the cool folks I know, even peripherally, I’m amazed at the variety of people in my life and the connections I have through them. Sometimes I feel like I could do anything with my life and I would be able to manage just fine, but other times just managing doesn’t seem good enough. I want to do what I really love. But I haven’t really figured out what that is yet. So I’m trying to keep all my doors open and follow all the leads… You can go wrong with possibilities.
